Isaac Watts Poems

Alas! and did my Savior bleed
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I?
...

A state of nature and of grace.

1 Cor. 6:10,11.
...

The heavens declare thy glory, Lord,
In every star thy wisdom shines;
But when our eyes behold thy word,
We read thy name in fairer lines.
...

I sing the mighty power of God,
that made the mountains rise,
That spread the flowing seas abroad,
and built the lofty skies.
...

I'm not ashamed to own my Lord,
Or to defend his cause;
Maintain the honor of his word,
...

FAR in the Heavens my God retires:
My God, the mark of my desires,
And hides his lovely face;
...

Salvation by grace.

Titus 3:3-7.
...

Let dogs delight to bark and bite,
For God hath made them so;
Let bears and lions growl and fight,
...

Abraham's blessing on the Gentiles.

Gen. 17:7; Rom. 15:8; Mk 10:14.
